STP is joined by Global Treasure Apps, Historic Environment Scotland, Museums Galleries Scotland and more to highlight the possibilities for towns when they use their culture, history and heritage to reinvigorate and promote their place.
We'll highlight the opportunities, support and advice offered by our partners along with a case study from Queensferry Ambition (Business Improvement District) which has excelled in making the most of their heritage. Take a look at Forth Bridges Festival 2015, led by Queensferry Ambition.
